Video: Copic Dot Coloring + Giveaway

Welcome. Today’s video features some adorable new stamps and a fun coloring technique – dot coloring. (I used Copics but you could use other markers, too.)

Oh my my my! This new The Whole Herd set from My Favorite Things is simply adorable. So I decided to keep the focus on the images and keep my card simple. But instead of using normal coloring, I decided to color with dots instead. This works really well with Copics, but also works with other markers. Such a unique look.

Can you have two favorites? My picks would be the cow print stamp and the Whole Herd set! We actually live out in the country on a dirt road with plenty of farm folk and animals running around now that it is spring! Would love to send a few cards to my farm friends using these super cute stamps!

I think my favourite are the cross stitch dies… no, the Whole Herd Stamps… no the – OH it’s too hard to pick one! Can I have them all? 😉 Thanks once again for showing us an amazing technique – something I will definitely have to try!

Love the new stamp set the whole herd.. as I’m always saying “hey there” so I’m sure I’d use the “hay there” a lot! Also any of the cross stitch dies would be perfect for anyone’s collection of dies..so cute!

After moving to Florida I developed a fondness for Flamingos so really need those dies with the coordinating stamps. Unfortunately, for me, there seem to be a lot of people with the same tastes a mine since they were sold out when I went to place my orders.

These cards are sooooo cute! I love this coloring technique. Thanks so much for the video. I’m going to give it a try. I think I will start with trying it on die cuts, great idea by the way. I don’t think it is possible to have a favorite MFT favorite. There are just too many cool things, there’s the barn die, the cross-stitch dies and now I NEED the Whole Herd set.

I love the look of the dot coloring! I have seen this done many times and it gives a great look of that texture. Your cards are adorable Jennifer!!! My favorite new stamp set with MFT is the flamingos!! I adore them! And I really like that barn die set too!
Hugs,
Jo
